Creating a second bear
Looking for material to do a second bear became too much of a chore today. I walked around the fabric area of the store, searching for just the right material. Mind you, I don’t want to spend a lot on this material since I am just a beginner. Looking at fake fur, trying to decide if I really should attempt that, I decided I need more input from someone who has done this before, so I will consult with my friend Ellie and see what she has to suggest. I did find a nice felt type material and perhaps will go back next week for some.
I also need to check the pattern again and try to modify it as suggested to me by another bear maker. The nose doesn’t seem long enough to me with the pattern I was using, so maybe I should buy some cheap material or use something I have here to do a sample for myself. Trial and error might be the way to go. I know I want to attempt another bear, so I have to have patience with myself, dive right into it, and see what happens.
